Font-face embedded fonts look fuzzy in Windows 7 browsers

I'm using a font called Chunk Five and when embedded with font-face, it looks almost unreadable in windows 7 browsers because of the way Windows renders their fonts (it's too fuzzy and thick). I've tried modifying things like font-weight and text-shadow, but they don't have any effect. Is there any way to change this or will I have to resort back to cufon?

Is this a ClearType problem? You could try toggling the ClearType renderer, to see if that makes a difference either way. If ClearType is on, you could try tuning it with the ClearType Tuner app for your viewing preferences.
